    Noise and bps?
    I just got my second bp, a sub adult male kingspin, from a relatively new exotic shop. They're not super busy, compared to the place where I got my normal girl (she was handled every day by the shop owner and the shop is located in a flea market that's very busy on the weekends).

    The reason I'm saying all of this is because my rack is in our computer room where by boyfriend plays video games. He's not constantly loud but there are times where he's yelling or laughing loudly. My girl is used to this, she's never stressed and always hiding but I don't think my new boy is used to any loud noises.

    I don't want to stress him out so I'm wondering if I should move the rack into the walk in closet in the computer room? There's no vent in the closet but there's a gap between to bottom of the door and the floor when its closed. It would probably be warmer in there, too considering that there's no a/c vent.

    Thoughts?

    As far as I know they can't hear so noise shouldn't be an issue. I would try to keep the vibrations to a minimum though. if you are cranking bass that would prob cause some stress. Def keep them in an area where the enclosure isn't getting bumped.

    Yeah, we use headphones so there's no bass or anything and the rack is tucked into the corner (ish) so it won't get bumped.

    Just as far as location , I have mine in my bathroom closet where there is no vent in the closet either. I just turn the light on in the morning before work and turn it off in the evening. Did have to get a small space heater to keep ambient temp at / around 80 though. Seems to be nice and peaceful in his little closet, its not airtight so oxygen or anything of the sort should not be an issue. Hope this helps
